Join Dr Kwatra as he dives deeper into the mechanism of lesion formation in Prurigo Nodularis and the impact the development of these skin lesions have on patient life.

Dr. Sonja Ständer and Dr. Shawn Kwatra discuss the unique features of prurigo nodularis (PN) as well as the characteristics that are shared with atopic dermatitis, and aim to raise awareness of PN among both physicians and patients.

Professor Matthias Augustin highlights the role of type 2 inflammation in chronic itch across distinct pruritic skin diseases and the cumulative burden of chronic itch and skin lesions in PN.

Experts from different specialties use a case-based discussion to understand type 2 inflammatory diseases from a nurse practitioner perspective.

In this episode, Dr. Sarina Elmariah and Dr. Brian Kim explore prurigo nodularis (PN), with a focus on severe itch, fibrotic skin lesions, and their impact on patients’ quality of life. They discuss PN epidemiology, common comorbidities, and the challenges of managing multimorbid patients, while breaking down the neuroimmune mechanisms, highlighting the role of type 2 cytokines in itch and lesion development.

Join Lisa Swanson, MD, and Gina Mangin, MPAS, PA-C, for an in-depth discussion on the immunopathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD), highlighting the central role of key type 2 inflammatory pathways in disease development and progression. This program explores how these pathways contribute to clinical manifestations across the AD spectrum and addresses common perceptions and misconceptions surrounding AD pathomechanisms, offering clarifying insights to support informed clinical decision-making.

Join Professors Matthias Augustin and Sarina Elmariah for an engaging ADVENT symposium as they explore the pivotal role of type 2 inflammation in prurigo nodularis and chronic itch.

Join experts Henrik Watz and Mona Bafadhel for an educational symposium exploring the role of type 2 cytokines in COPD and delve into the link between underlying drivers of COPD with type 2 inflammation and cumulative patient burden.

Professors Klaus Rabe, Paola Rogliani, and Dr. Stephanie Christenson explore the complexity of inflammatory pathways and phenotypes in COPD. They provide insights into the genetic association of IL-33 with COPD, and discuss preclinical findings.
